I have a lively and clever 3 year old. He is boisterous and resorts to hitting when there are problems usually related to toys. He went through a biting stage but this has (thankfully) stopped. He is an only child and when I am in the company of other adults it is someimes stressful as he constantly seeks my attention. Is this normal? He is a loving and very cuddly child.
I am struggling to deal with a particular 'friend' who is openly critical of my parenting style. I am appalled that she seemingly things it is ok to be so openly critical. She has told me my child has 'behaviour issues' which will develop into a serious problems. I work as a teacher and do not think this is true but it has impacted on my confidence and ended the friendship, which does not bother me as her attitude has not been a one off. Any comments ideas would be appreciated.
